The Chowri was not simply functional. It formed part of the way people presented themselves, particularly on occasions when traditional appearance and dress were important.<\/p>\n

Traditional hairstyles, ornaments and clothing together created the visual identity of a community.<\/p>\n

The Chowri is one small component of that larger tradition.<\/p>\n
